Please note: "Preferred Start Time". We will do the best that we can to accommodate people to their requested times. However, please be flexible because this event will have European and American musicians in many different time zones. Time slots will be on a semi-"first come-first served" basis. Furthermore, please post your time in GMT. The handy clock should make it simple. However, we do use military/24 hour time. It will undoubtedly be an international event and GMT is the only way to coordinate such events.

As in the past, the CHATROOM will serve as an invaluable communication tool for set up, streaming, and connecting to those listening....and it's just a lot of fun! I suggest participants get familiar with it in advance, if you aren't already.

If you want a recording of your set, it would be prudent to record your own set, rather than depend on others. Accidents and mistakes happen...especially in this format. There are many ways to record your set. Edcast has a built in recording system. You can also record your stream from your mixer on the signal path to the computer.

Performers MUST stream at 128 kbps, 44.1 kHz , stereo .

It is IMPERATIVE that everyone test their connections before we start streaming. At least 24 hours before or sooner. Sorry, but musicians WILL NOT be allowed to stream on Saturday if you do not test 24 hours before hand. Not only does it delay the schedule, but causes unneeded stress on performer, server operator, and audience during performance time. Wink

TO DO THE STREAMING:, all you need is a PC with Oddcast (now called Edcast), a free program. If you have a MAC, you can use the Nicecast program (free demo works for a month the last time we tried it) to stream. If you are are interested in participating, we'll set up a test server just for you to experiment on to make sure you can get it to work.

I will do some fun percussion and other things with the Aries Synthesizer for 30 minutes. If we add another 30 minutes, then I'll do some improv with my K2600. I may play a new theremin composition, too -- but no guarantee on that _________________-- Kevinhttp://kevinkissinger.com

I'm very flexible on the time, but please don't make it later than 2300 GMT. Earlier is better if it needs to be moved. I have trouble with energy levels later in the day. Thanks.Last edited by nobody on Mon Mar 15, 2010 12:28 pm; edited 4 times in total

I totally need to make sure my connection is good enough and that I've got a good configuration. If someone would kindly set up a test time with me, that'd be great.

Of course, please report in the chat at some time and there will be probably be someone to talk you through the setup. I will have to make a server entry for you as well and PM you some details about that, but that can be done pretty quickly.

1.Preferred Start Time (Please use GMT/Military Time): 0100 (I'm very flexible, but if my time needs to be moved, please try to make it earlier and not later. It can be very much earlier if necessary. I have trouble functioning late in the evening (it would be 2000 EST for me) due to sleep deprivation in the past. Thanks)

Nice to see another morning person Looking forward to your set! The stream ops are usually very careful to check that everyone has a great connection, so you're in good hands.

I still have to see if I will be able to participate, but I thought it would be a good idea to mention that for a Mac you have to buy Nicecast.
If you use it as a trial version, it will output noise too which will ruin your stream.
Unfortunately it seems that there is no freeware for Mac...

Actually there is ... using Soundflower and MuSE ... for some info see : http://editoradoporto.blogspot.com/ .. at least I succeeded into sending out some hum picked up from the mic input that way._________________Jan

Hey Paulo
Sign up will likely end sometime in the first week of march so that we can put the schedule/poster together and have a couple weeks to promote the event. Just check with me if you are not ready by that time and we can work something out. _________________ ElectroCasa
